A coalition of Black and Brown community activists rallied in support of Eric Adams on Nov. 14 following verbal barbs between the mayor-elect and Black Lives Matter of Greater New York leader Hawk Newsome.
The group proudly clung to “Adams for mayor” signs in City Hall Park Sunday in a show of solidarity with the mayor-to-be after news circulated that Newsome promised swift retribution if Adams makes good on his vow to reinstate the NYPD Anti-Crime Unit, plainclothes officers working to catch gun criminals.
